This reminds me of my "dogs 'n wheelchairs" miscommunication. A couple of
years ago I was late for lunch because I had been in the Student Support
Services office seeing one of my advisees. When I got to the cafeteria
and a friend asked me where I had been, I told her and then started
describing the Support Services building since I'd found it an interesting
place. I said, "It was full of dogs and wheelchairs." Wide-eyed, she
responded, "Why were the dogs in wheelchairs??"
